PlayStation3 has *just* been unveiled by Sony at their pre-E3 press conference. The machine, which features a convex design not dissimilar to a refridgerator door, has been billed as "twice as powerful as Xbox 360" by Sony.

hate exclusivity contracts.....if they don't release the the next gta for pc atleast they will be shooting themsleves in the foot.

i play gta for gta but mainly i get into for the modding and ps3 no modding. the next gta will have to be pretty hot shit for me to fork out the money for a new playstation.

and no not a fan of xbox either(xbox 360 is a dumb name.) so don't go on with "you starting a console war!!" just not a fan of the new looks out there for the systems and ouch that ps3 controler looks painful.

that controller freaks me out LOL so the Xbox 360 and PS3 are both silver??? you know how the exclusive deals work, the xbox and pc versions will come out later on... but the next gta will be on PS3 first, dont forget about the PSP game! I guess Rockstar just loves Sony, so the marriage continues...

PS3 looks good it'll be faster than xbox, but not double. The advantages of PS3 are:
1 - Main RAM isn't shared whith video RAM, and it will be very fast at core speed.
2 - 8 processing units, which means more tasks running very fast. And great programming possibilities.
3 - Fast GPU.
And about GTA4, check out IGN:
-------------------------------
May 16, 2005 - Despite early reports that claimed Grand Theft Auto would be a PS3 launch title (gotta love that early launch chaos), we have confirmed with our editors at the Sony E3 press event that no new GTA title has been confirmed for Sony's upcoming machine.

What Rockstar did confirm, however, was that it would be supporting the powerhouse system in the future and that it's looking forward to creating living, breathing worlds with the Cell technology.

Evidence of this could be found in Rockstar's PS3 trailer that showed an old-west style desert game that is as of yet unnamed. We'll have more on that in just a few minutes.

So, Rockstar Rocks!:) It's too early for the next GTA.

I think Nintendo is going to be out of the picture soon if they don't step up their game. I don't even think Revolution will hold a match to this inferno. I like the fact that we are getting better more advanced systems. Don't know if I'll buy a PS3 right off the bat. Nothing is getting the chance to run a course like the original PlayStation. After all it pretty much owned the market when it came out and it owned it for years. PS2 hasn't had as long of a run. Partially because Xbox was an honorable adversary. I'm looking forward to experiencing both new systems however i don't like the new controller for the PS3. I don't know what Sony is thinking changing their controller style. The current controller is perfect. It fits comfortably in the hand and is easy to use. This one is just painful to look at in my opinion. Anyway, Happy Gaming!

Fortunetly my self i never liked consoles and this is just a fancey dsign to grab people just so they can show of to freinds having a nice peace of shiny plastic under the telli with a RIVA TNT1 inside this thing wont run sh*t i can tell

the only time you need silly designs is when you dont have anyhting to put in it (in other words waste all the money on plastic and the rest on a riva tnt1)

I thanku altho i have made it clear i dont like the thing the design is still good but needs something more than power its to clean and heartless needs some heart like PS2

I think ALL of u agree with me when I say that the PS2 had the best controller available, MAYBE, just maybe this new one even though it looks a bit odd, might be good too, like handling-wise. But I guess we'll have to wait to touch it.

san andreas xbox trailer on IGN.com !!! its fn great, the music is Eminence Front from The Who, I love that song... 1 minute trailer, I think its better than all the ps2 trailers... check it out, you can download the wmv version too, Ive already watched it about 20 times, it kicks ass, san andreas xbox june 7th baby! the official countdown has begun, only 20 -21 days 3weeks! heck yeah

I think that is the best controller I've seen for a console. I know that it looks weird, but it looks sssoooo comfortable. Look how the d-pad and buttons are turned to the side. I seriously think it will rock.

Sony your are my god!!!!!
Microsoft you are my satin!!!
I amde a song in the tune of the frosties advert:Go Sony, I like the things you do, Go Sony, I like the things you make, Your the one and only comapany, the one and only make, you take the xbox 360 and make it look s*H*I*T!!!!

PS3, just.....unbelievable. Sony comes out on top again, rolling xbox like its mashed potatoes. but it might being $465? even thought it does sound good, it's jus a whole $200 more than the ps2. they should at least have it around $350. but Sony did a kick ass job on the ps3. i give all thumbs up

Youve got to be kidding me... Sony *I BELIEVE* hasnt even shown real footage. All weve seen is pre-rendered. If I can see some live footage like what weve seen from the Killzone 2 video, Ill definately buy it, but Sony may be promising more than it will deliver. PS3 isnt even playable at E3....

According to the conference video I've seen, they say everything shown is in real time running on the PS3. Not only that, but I've also heard that the final product will be even more powerful than the one shown at E3.

hey do u think they made the controller like that cuz of the dual-shock thing. where sony lost the case against some other company who made dual shock first or something????? cuz it was on gtagaming.com a while back
